CASC 2016 Review Series: The Trainee Leaders

'There is more in you than you think'.

The 2016 CASC Regional Camp: A Trinbago Callaloo Adventure was held in the rugged, astounding beauty that is Trinidad & Tobago. The Duke of Edinburgh's International Award Barbados, with the help of corporate Barbados, sent a contingent of 10 participants, 7 trainee leaders and 6 staff to the event.

This documentary was filmed in both Trinidad & Tobago and Barbados. It captures the training leading up to the camp, the rigours of hiking Trinidad's second highest mountain El Tucuche and the trainees growth as leaders and their triumphs over their limitations.
